Abstract
Respiratory diseases constitute a major global health burden, contributing significantly to morbidity, mortality, and healthcare expenditure. Conditions such as bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), allergic rhinitis, upper and lower respiratory tract infections, and pulmonary tuberculosis continue to challenge modern healthcare systems due to their chronic nature, recurrent exacerbations, and adverse effects associated with long-term pharmacotherapy. Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine, offers a comprehensive approach to respiratory disease management through its unique principles of Tridosha, Pranavaha Srotas, Agni, and Ojas. Classical Ayurvedic texts including Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and Ashtanga Hridaya describe respiratory disorders under conditions such as Shwasa, Kasa, Pratishaya, and Rajayakshma, along with detailed etiopathogenesis and treatment protocols.
This systematic review aims to critically analyze classical Ayurvedic literature and contemporary research studies to evaluate the role of Ayurvedic management in respiratory diseases. Electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, AYUSH Research Portal, and peer-reviewed Ayurvedic journals were searched for relevant articles. Evidence suggests that Ayurvedic interventions including Shodhana, Shamana, Rasayana therapy, dietary regulations (Pathya Ahara), and yogic breathing practices (Pranayama) play a significant role in symptom control, disease prevention, and quality-of-life improvement. However, despite promising outcomes, the lack of large-scale randomized controlled trials highlights the need for further scientific validation. This review underscores the potential of Ayurveda as a complementary and integrative approach in respiratory disease management.
